where there is no electric supply and thus

giving the flexibility and versatility of current

standard models.

In applications where a full train is powered

by the on-board gen-set configuration the

crushers generate sufficient energy to en-

able the operator to run the FINLAY 694+

dual power inclined screen for ‘free’ when

used in conjunction with the J-1175 dual

power jaw crusher.

“We are excited by the introduction of these

new models to the South African market-

place. The crushing and screening models

are already well respected and the flexibility

of dual power will only enhance their repu-

tation with operators in the market. We’ve

already had a positive response from our

customers and are confident that this will

result in firm orders in the near future,” re-

marks Paul Chappel, FINLAY Regional Sales

Manager.

The dual powered FINLAY J-1175 jaw crush-

er offers operators the flexibility to power the

plant either by mains electric connection or

the onboard gen-set power pack configura-

tion. Either power option presents operators

with significant power, servicing and mainte-

nance cost savings in direct comparison to a

diesel/hydraulic powered plant.

The plant incorporates the robust and re-

nowned JW42 high performance electri-

cally driven single toggle jaw chamber and

a heavy duty VGF feeder to give optimum

production in quarrying, mining, demolition

and recycling applications. Additional bene-

fits include rapid set up time, ease of main-

tenance, high reduction ratio, high output

capacity and advanced electronic control

system.

The jaw chamber is hydrostatically driven,

which offers operators reversible oper-

ation for clearing blockages that may be

experienced in demolition and recycling ap-

plications.

The hydrostatic system also provides vari-

able chamber speed to suit given applica-

tions. Chamber CSS (Closed Side Setting)

adjustment is fully hydraulic, and can be

changed in a matter of minutes.

The dual powered FINLAY C-1540 cone

crusher offers operators the flexibility to

power the plant either by mains electric

connection or the onboard gen-set power

pack configuration. Either option presents

operators with significant power, servicing

and maintenance cost savings.

This energy efficient and productive ma-

chine incorporates the proven Terex

1000

cone crusher with direct electric drive, auto-

matic tramp relief and hydraulic closed side

setting (CSS) adjustment.

The dual powered FINLAY C-1540 can be

fitted with an optional patented pre-screen

module which allows fines materials to

bypass prior to being fed to the crushing

chamber. This offers better wear rates in the

crushing chamber. The fines materials can

also be prepared separately and discharged

via the optional on-board side conveyor.

The large hopper/feeder has automat-

ed metal detection and a purge system to

protect the cone and reduce downtime by

removing metal contaminants via the purge

chute.

The FINLAY 694+ dual power inclined

screen provides customers with the option

of running this class-leading machine by ei-

ther diesel or electric mode, depending on

the resources available at each site. In terri-

tories with wide disparities in quality of fuel

or where the cost of fuel is an issue versus

electricity prices, the machine will also have

particular advantages.

As standard, the FINLAY 694+ dual power

uses 2 x 37 kW IE2 Electric motors, which

operate at 50 Hz and are suitable for most

regions. However, a 60 Hz and/or IE3 set-up

can be configured to suit particular regions

such as the USA.

The intuitive and user friendly electrical and

hydraulic system allows the customer to

switch between diesel and electric mode at

the flick of a switch. The primary operation

and control of the machine remain the same

regardless of the selected power. It is pos-

sible to power this 694+ inclined screener

using the onboard gen-set of the J-1175

dual power crusher. This means that oper-

ators can essentially run the screener free

of charge.

The FINLAY 694+ dual power features a

large 6.1 m x 1.525 m (20’ x 5’) triple deck

inclined screen, giving a total screening area

of 28m² to provide efficient screening and

high capacity.
